Shift Point Changes on Inclines and Declines

An additional gear change map automatically selects the gear changes for gradients dependent upon accelerator pedal position and driving speed.

• The gear change map for extreme uphill stretches is matched to engine output

• The gear change map for extreme downhill stretches is matched to the braking effect of the engine.

• Direct gear selection by the way of the Tiptronic function permits utilization of engine braking action with a specific gear engaged, for example, on a downhill gradient with a trailer.
